Synopsis
Making the case that waiting for some future enlightenment, fulfillment, or paradise is actually the greatest deterrent to ever achieving it, this daring argument proposes that sacrificing today while hoping for some future moment is the greatest nightmare any individual could face. Five moving stories in the Zen tradition and applied to modern life illustrate the importance of living in the present and finding joy in the ordinariness of life.
Plantenado la idea de que esperar alguna futura iluminación, realización o paraíso es, más bien, el elemento disuasorio más significativo para alcanzar esta meta, este audaz argumento sostiene que sacriticar el presente mientras se espera algún futuro momento es la mayor pesadilla que puede tener el individuo. Cinco historias de la tradición zen y relacionadas con la vida actual ilustran la importancia de vivir el presente y gozar el día a día de la vida.
